Let Your Beauty Glow

---

This old gal…

Scrolled through an ad on social media…for a shop in a city nearby…a gallery of sorts…hosting rooms and rooms of vendor products…

When something caught the eye…nestled beneath the dogs…next to the bulbous glass head…a swung glass vase…a purple…swung glass vase…

Heard the call…would have heeded the call…but this day…this scrolling day…was the day…last year…before leaving…for Texas…

Told the lavender beauty to wait…vintage glass lover me would be back…and if it was meant to be…it…would be…

This favorite of mine…the love of vintage glass…began with three depression glass pieces…bought at an auction…in 1982…

Treasured them…all these years…but life happened…kids happened…vintage glass collecting…stopped there…

And now…a hobby…the search for pretties for pocket change…a favorite pass time…for two old folks…

It’s the beauty of the glass…that draws one in…the sun shining through…the colors…a rainbow…each one unique…each one…special…

Just like…you…are special…just like…you…are unique…turn your face to the sun…let your beauty glow…

And this husband of mine…agrees…
